Raconteurs Get "Crazy"
Gnarls are awesome and everything, but what if they were a bit more White?
No, I'm not talkin' 'bout Legion Of Doom.
The Raconteurs -- that's Saboteurs to you Aussies -- recently covered Gnarls Barkley's Song Of Oh Six at the Warfield in San Francisco. Why? Because we "caught [them] in a very good mood."
The Raconteurs - "Crazy (Live 7-23-06)" (MP3 Link Expired)
This gives me a great Cee-Lo and DM costume idea. (You know, the one you had three Halloweens ago.)
Ray LaMontagne, Nelly Furtado, Kooks, Twilight Singers, Raconteurs ... who will go "Crazy" next? Or should everyone stop the insanity?
UPDATE: Add Butch Walker, Of Montreal, and Mates Of State to that list of coverers. Any more?

my two cents, I'm not too thrilled with the Ranconteurs. I'm bored of them already. Jack White is a great front man...but this side project thingy is ... meh. ...

i heard paris hilton was supposed to cover it and that was the reason her album got pushed back... it sucks when good songs get overplayed and overcovered, but everything paris hilton touches turns to shit.
p.s. tilly and the wall covered hey ya also, but thats a great example of a song that i never want to hear of again.
Score = 0
Not to be a hater because I was at the other Warfield show on the 22nd, but Jack singing Nancy Sinatra's Bang Bang was so so so much better than this. Now that's a mp3 to track down. I have a you tube of them performing it in sweeden on my site if you want to check it out.
Score = 0
Technically, wouldn't he have been covering Cher's "Bang Bang"?
Score = 0
No, he would have been covering Sunny Bono's "Bang Bang", altho Nancy was the first person to record it.
Score = 0
Of Montreal's cover is the best. You should ask the readers if anyone has the mp3 hook up.
Score = 0
Anyone have a working link to download this track?
Thanks in advance!
